Maggie and Jon had a joyful wedding at Battello in Jersey City, New Jersey. The vibe was modern-chic with an industrial twist.
Bride’s unique dress was by Viktor & Rolf Mariage Collection and her bridesmaids dresses were Jenny Yoo. The groom’s suit was from Jos A Bank.
The couple prepped at The Westin Jersey City Newport. We HIGHLY recommend this as the #1 hotel option if you’re having your wedding in the Jersey City area. We always talk about the necessity of natural light and space when you’re prepping, and the bridal suite here even has a photogenic bathroom – LOL! And it’s directly across the street from Battello. You can’t go wrong.
It was a blustery day, but the buildings blocked the wind enough to where we could still do the first look at Battello along the brick wall.
The waterfront is gorgeous with views of the skyline. We hear concerns sometimes about how Battello doesn’t have a lot of expansive “grounds,” but we think what there is to work with is just perfect! The bride and groom wanted to seem as natural as possible in photos. They were, however, also open to some staged editorial posing on the leather couches at Battello.
It truly makes a difference when amazing vendors are on the team for the day. The florist, A Touch of Elegance, brought Maggie’s vision to life with just enough greenery throughout the industrial reception space at Battello. There were even disco balls hanging from the ceiling with greenery!!
One of our favorite planners Danielle Aspromatis of D’Luxe Events was there to supervise the day and ensure that everything ran smoothly. And the band Jersey Joint got the party GOING.
A few other special little details from the day included Jon’s cufflinks, which had the coordinates of their wedding location (Battello)!
Maggie’s father’s necktie had a photo of bride and dad from the 80’s on the back of it.
The bar had cocktail napkins with their dog’s face on it. It’s so awesome when a couple thinks of incorporating little personalized details!
Congrats again to Maggie & Jon!
